The problem

Artwork is the bottleneck you stop noticing until it breaks you.

Every personalised order has an artwork problem hiding inside it. Wrong format. Colours that can't be reproduced. Lines too thin to embroider. At low volume your artwork team absorbs it. At scale it absorbs your margin, your turnaround and your ability to grow.

Slow turnaroundEvery customer logo waits in a designer's queue. Small orders take days you can't bill for.
Error-prone filesManual prep means wrong colours, low-res uploads and reprints that eat straight into margin.
No design capacityYou can't hire designers fast enough to scale. Volume becomes a bottleneck instead of growth.
How it works

One automated flow, from upload to production file.

Five steps, fully automated. No handoffs, no designer, no back-and-forth. Average time from upload to routed file: 20 seconds.

01
Upload artworkAny logo, even a low-res JPG

Your customer drops in whatever they have: a low-res JPG, a PDF, a photo taken on a phone. No file prep, no naming conventions, no design brief.

02
Improve artworkVectorized, cleaned, colour-matched

Backgrounds are removed, thin lines are checked against what the print method can actually hold, and colours are mapped to the supplier’s palette.

03
Visualize on productRendered live on the real product

The artwork is mapped to the print area at the correct scale, position and curvature. Your customer sees what they will actually receive, not a flat overlay.

04
Approve designOne click, no email rounds

A branded print proof is generated and approved in the browser. No PDF attachments, no email rounds, no waiting on a designer to send a mockup back.

05
Production file createdBuilt to each supplier’s specs

Correct format, colour space and dimensions per decoration method. The file arrives ready to run, with no prepress step in between.

The engine

What the automation actually does to your files.

Six capabilities carry the pipeline. Each one replaces a step your artwork team does by hand today.

01Spec validation per supplierMinimum line thickness for screen print. Colour-count limits for embroidery. Bleed for DTF. Resolution for sublimation. Enforced at the point of personalisation, not after the order lands.See spec validation →
02Background removalLogos arrive on white boxes, photo backgrounds and screenshot clutter. FastEditor isolates the mark, cuts the background and keeps clean edges, so the logo prints on the product and not on a rectangle.See background removal →
03Automated vectorizationAny raster logo (JPEG, PNG or PDF) becomes a clean production vector in under 20 seconds. No manual tracing, no back-and-forth with the customer.See automated vectorization →
04Preflight and quality checksStrokes too fine to print, detail too small to embroider, colours outside the reproducible gamut. Flagged and corrected before the file reaches the press.See preflight checks →
05Print proof creationA branded proof is generated with the artwork, print position, dimensions, colours and technique. Approved online in seconds and bundled with the production file, so there are no email rounds and fewer reprints.See print proof creation →
06Multi-format file outputOne upload, many outputs: vector PDF and SVG for print, PNG or JPG for digital and sublimation. The right file goes to the right production step automatically, per decoration method.See file generation →
Bad upload in, good file out

A pixelated phone photo is not a blocker anymore.

The editor analyses the upload, decides which improvements the file needs (vectorization, upscaling, text conversion, colour fitting, line-thickness repair, background removal) and applies them before anyone downstream sees it.

FAQ

Questions buyers ask before they integrate.

If your case isn't covered here, we'll walk it through on your own products.

Ask us anything

What is artwork automation?

+

Taking customer-submitted artwork (logos, photos, text) and automatically converting it into production-ready files that meet your supplier's exact specifications. It replaces the manual prep step between customer order and production.

Which decoration methods are supported?

+

Screen print, embroidery, DTF, DTG, pad print, laser engraving, sublimation, debossing, digital and offset. Output as vector PDF, SVG, PNG or JPG. Embroidery DST output arrives Q3 2026.

Does it replace our artwork team entirely?

+

For standard orders, yes. Your artwork team handles the exceptions, under 0.05% of orders, plus custom or complex work that sits outside the automated pipeline.

Do customers need to upload a vector file?

+

No. Standard uploads are auto-vectorized, upscaled, colour-fitted and background-removed as needed. A phone photo of a business card is a valid starting point.

We run a custom-built platform. Can it still integrate?

+

Yes. That is exactly what the Custom API integration is for. FastEditor is already embedded in bespoke platforms, ERPs and headless stacks. Your developers own the integration; FastEditor owns the artwork.

Is our uploaded artwork and customer IP secure?

+

Files are stored per account in AWS in your local region (EU, US or Australia), never shared between partners and never used to train anything. Access runs through your own API credentials, a DPA is available, and artwork is purged on your retention schedule.

How does pricing work?

+

Plans start at €95 per month plus a per-production-file fee, with no commission on your order value. Tiering follows catalogue size and usage.

How fast can we go live?

+

Standard integrations in 1 to 2 days. Custom API integrations typically 3 to 4 weeks, including catalogue onboarding and spec configuration.
